💧Stop That Drip! How Leaky Faucets & Toilets Can Soak Your Wallet 💸

💧Stop That Drip! How Leaky Faucets & Toilets Can Soak Your Wallet 💸

A dripping faucet or a quietly leaking toilet might not seem like an emergency—but over time, they can add up to thousands of gallons of wasted water and a sky-high utility bill. Whether you're a tenant or a property owner, staying ahead of these silent leaks can save serious money 💵 and prevent bigger issues down the line.

🚰 Tenants: Why You Should Report Leaks ASAP

Leaky Faucets = Big Costs
A single faucet that drips once per second can waste over 3,000 gallons of water per year—that’s the equivalent of taking more than 180 showers! 🚿💦

Leaking Toilets = Silent Budget Killers
Toilets are one of the most common sources of hidden water waste. A running toilet can waste up to 200 gallons of water per day. That adds up fast!

✅ Quick Tip: The Toilet Dye Test

Think your toilet might be leaking? Try this:

  1. Add a few drops of food coloring or a dye tablet into the toilet tank. 🎨

  2. Wait 10–15 minutes without flushing.

  3. If the color appears in the bowl—you’ve got a leak! 🚽💧

🧠 Be Proactive, Save Money

Tenants can help by keeping an eye out for:

  • Dripping faucets

  • Running toilets

  • Damp cabinets or mildew smells under sinks

  • Soft or warped flooring near water sources

If you notice anything, report it right away! A quick fix today avoids a costly repair tomorrow.
